I was testing with speaker-test -c2 -Dhdmi ... interestingly enough alsa-driver 1.0.22 behaves differently than 1.0.21 1.0.21 - no warning message in kernel log, speaker test was switching amongst channels (like it was really playing something) 1.0.22 - warning message in kernel log [ 10.096043] ALSA hda_intel.c:694: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last cmd=0x100f0000 speaker-test/aplay just hangs forever until ^C in both cases neither av receiver nor tv detects any audio on HDMI > > Takashi > Thanks, Michal _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
